Yoga and spin

day 20 of the Whole30 and feeling great. I can't believe how good I feel, depression is gone,server headaches gone, all day tiredness gone, moodyness gone, sugar craving gone, I now crave sweet potatoes, squash, and healthy fats, the rash I've had in my neck for a year+ is gone, pain levels are going down. I may never go back to eating non- Paleo it's hard but I love the way I feel. 

A sample of my day

early if I exersice- banana or date energy balls or my homemade citrus date coconut oil fuel.

breakfast-either a green smoothie or eggs and veggies this morning I had eggs in a red pepper and left over acorn squash.

 Lunch- most of the time it's left overs from dinner or I cook some fish and sautée a sweet potato and put it on a bed of greens with avocado and lots of other veggies. 

Dinner- last night I made curried shrimp that my kids love, asparagus sautéed in olive oil with salt and lemon pepper and acorn squash 

anyway I feel great!

1. Do you have a hard time eating out?

2. I need to do more research, but is Paleo is fruit, veggies, eggs, meat and nuts? No bread, rice, or grain?

3. How long was your detox period?

It is very difficult to eat out, I have gone to cafe rio once and got a salad with steak, pico, guacamole, and lots of lettuce. I make better salads at home.

Yes paleo is all that plus no sugars or legumes, dairy is out as well. you can do honey and maple syrup on occactions but not in the Whole30. You also can't do the paleo type "desserts". My detox period seemed to last 2 weeks. I think I would have felt better sonner if I would have been taking probiotics and digestive enzymes from the start. My problem was terrible bloating and horrible gas. I was not sure I was going to last, but now I think I will continue past the 30 days and see how my cycle is doing it a couple months.

Look at these websites

I have to eat more than just 3 meals a day because I was so dizzy, which I read a lot of people get when they start this sort if diet.

I also eat more high carb veggie like sweet potatoes and squash to keep up with my running. I googled paleo and endurance athletes and there is good info out there on how to make it work.

Thanks Josse! That is super helpful. Nutrition is my biggest downfall with my running....I need to be better!
